The Barrage at Hennepin Row

[Verse 1] Oh gather in close You bold-hearted crew I’ll sing you a tale that’s defiant and true Not pikes Not stones But a sight to behold As we marched on the wagons of power so cold [Chorus] Raise your toys in the air Let the whole yard know Let ’em rain on the steel in a bright Rude glow (hey!) For every cruel order those papers bestow We’ll answer with laughter on Hennepin Row [Verse 2] They lined up their trucks in a gray-hearted chain All tinted and towering Engines in strain But from backpacks and pockets the colors did fly Rubber rebellions arced into the sky [Chorus] Raise your toys in the air Let the whole yard know Let ’em rain on the steel in a bright Rude glow (oh yeah!) For every cruel order those papers bestow We’ll answer with laughter on Hennepin Row [Bridge] Some swing with a sword Some pray with a bead We’ll fight with wild humor ’gainst bullying greed For shame can sting sharper than batons and keys And courage rings louder in roars and in tease [Chorus] Raise your toys in the air Let the whole yard know Let ’em rain on the steel in a bright Rude glow (hey!) For every cruel order those papers bestow We’ll answer with laughter on Hennepin Row We’ll answer with laughter on Hennepin Row
